- ??: Options Subgroup: Working on principle 6. Concerned that extremely serious A11y is being looked over in some cases. Currently on track - planning to report back on uses cases in March. No github issues
- 19:17:27 [RickBoardman]
- Jeanne: use cases v v helpful, worth prioritizing those
- 19:18:24 [RickBoardman]
- Jeanne - Q: would you consider bringing use cases together in one doc? Has impact on what we publish in March.
- 19:19:16 [RickBoardman]
- Action ?? - create digestible summary of current use cases

- 19:22:16 [RickBoardman]
- Jeanne: pls don't close any comments before reviewed by AGWG and Silver groups

- 19:24:03 [RickBoardman]

- 19:24:39 [RickBoardman]
- Jeanne: status of Algorithm for dark colour pairs? And scope?
- 19:24:59 [RickBoardman]
- ChrisLoiselle: Answers: (1) will check, (2) yes

- Lauriat, you wanted to ask about the group scope and going beyond text
- 19:25:52 [RickBoardman]
- Lauriat: Q re: sub-group direction - are you looking at contrast in general for guideline? (i.e. not just text, but non-text as well)
- 19:26:02 [ChrisLoiselle]
- https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/task-forces/silver/wiki/Visual_Contrast_of_Text_Subgroup
- 19:27:27 [Chuck]
- q+
- 19:27:55 [RickBoardman]
- ChrisLoiselle: current focus is text but general contrast is overall scope for subgroup. Discussions ongoing around next steps. Can follow-up offline.
- 19:28:25 [RickBoardman]
- Lauriat: Confirming the above, current focus is text, but long-term will include non-text elements too
- 19:28:30 [RickBoardman]
- ChrisLoiselle: confirmed

- Jeanne: Q from community - what is plan for visual contrast?
- 19:30:44 [RickBoardman]
- Jeanne: Concern that current doc is overwhelming. OK for me to divide up into sub-pages with links?
- 19:31:14 [RickBoardman]
- ChrisLoiselle: Y, currently we just have one page, and discussion tab. V open to suggestions though.

- 19:32:38 [RickBoardman]
- Jeanne: Suggestion came from EO working group who are in turn being asked for a simple description of whats changing. We could also just create a simple "Whats happening with subgroup?" page - i.e. target = non-experts
- 19:33:10 [RickBoardman]
- Lauriat: Q: can we just point people at Getting Started page?
- 19:33:20 [Lauriat]
- Meaning this page: https://www.w3.org/WAI/GL/WCAG3/2020/how-tos/visual-contrast-of-text/
- 19:33:42 [RickBoardman]
- ChrisLoiselle: Q: is this internal to wiki? Not clear where q is coming from on the EO side.

- q+
- 19:34:27 [RickBoardman]
- Jeanne: use case is different to the Getting Started page which targets beginners. These questions are from people who know A11y but want concise summary
- 19:34:35 [RickBoardman]
- Lauriat: agrees
- 19:35:58 [RickBoardman]
- ChrisLoiselle: Would like more detail from EO on the ask

- ack saj
- 19:37:46 [RickBoardman]
- Sajkaj: I agree that changing existing page would not be ideal. Suggests that HL overview often best written from outside group. V much in favour of meta page.
- 19:38:31 [RickBoardman]
- Jeanne: could you roughly draft, Chris? Or I can just copy the existing editors note as starting point
- 19:38:58 [RickBoardman]
- ChrisLoiselle: Editors note sounds good [Jeanne will handle, Chris can help]
- 19:39:13 [jeanne]
- action: jeanne to draft an intro wiki page for visual contrast based on editor's note.
- 19:41:06 [RickBoardman]
- Functional Needs Sub-group (Charles, Michael): Focus = pulling together database of requirements (taking longer than expected), then will work on relationships between them. Reactivating group next week.

- Shawn: tool demoed recently
